How are the Duels working for you? Are you getting better production out of the from the 635? When would you think you might be taking them off or leave on?
We were just talking about that very thing. For us, once we take them off, we will probably never put them back on. If we ran in swamps 100%, we would run them but otherwise, our biggest help is the sunshine.
@@cotontop3 I'm being curious as to why you wouldn't run them again as I have been thinking about putting duals on my 748 to keep us running up here in the N.E.
@@cotontop3 The chains you have once shown on that forwarder are probably even more expensive than duals huh? Anyway great you are able to run again :) It's not only the skidder that has problems if it's that wet, maybe best to just take an involuntary break / do some maintenance.
Kevin is one buisy man watching him run the processer is like watching a orchestra being played every thing is one beat after another man he is a beast in there
Been around the logging industry for 30 years Tim i never knew you had to let the air out of the tires to get them on. I thought they were pulled together by the rim bolts. Learned something new today.
Just watching your dad in the truck reminded me of a saying a relation of mine always said" experience is the greatest teacher we could ever have". If you put a young person in that muddy spot he wouldn't be able to tune the truck around so as the other old saying goes "you cant put an old head on young shoulders". Take care and GOD BLESS.
Nice to have sun shine. Great video. Had to come back and add something about the tire you cleared up for me. Was wondering how you keep thing out from the middle of them. I had seen truck tires blow from rocks getting between them when I was driving a dump truck in rocky places. God bless you'll
Maybe someone asked this already but I didn't see it. I have seen loggers up my way in the mountains run big heavy tire chains for traction. Have you ever tried using chains, or is that just an up north kinda thing?? 🙂
Another great video Tim! Have you ever been to the Tigercat plant in Ontario Canada to see how they build your machines? Great tour, well worth seeing if you haven't been there. Much of your wood appears to be smaller diameter timber, what is it being used for?
Tim, I know you've said how good the tigercat skidders are, but not long ago you had a Deere skidder, how did it compare with the Tigercats? Is there a skidder out there now that is anything like the 635d in power?
I'm a new subscriber, and really enjoy your videos. I like the way you put the little bit at the end. For my opinion on the duals. Maybe it doesn't apply because of the forestry application, but the taller tires should be on the inside. It should give you better manoeuvring on the hard ground, all the while being easier on the components. If I'm wrong I don't mind being corrected. Keep up the great content 👍👍
Ok Teacher/Tow service/Tim..I get it, you couldn't fit a gnat fart in between those dual's, now that's tight..LOL I coulda said, like me back in the high school day's but I'm not one to put my personal info. out there, so I didn't.. Tim have a great day, and Take care out there..
Hello mr. Cotontop3.Great video. Why does your tires and most american tires even agricultural , have different angle on the ribs than european tires ? They dont seem to run clean as good in muddy conditions?
Huge fan cottontop! New to your videos but love them. Love the skidder videos man. Can u do a review video on the skidders you have? Keep up the goodwork! !
Good info on the duals, some good information. Was he pulling on brush or did the ground dry up that much after lunch cause those treads started looking clean? Also could you do a class on the processor? Cause when he picks up a tree it looks like it sucks it up. Awesome video, thanks Tim
I just watched it again and that is not what I said. You can’t do it how ur talking about because the tires are not the same width. Inside is 30.5 wide and outside is 24.5 wide.
Yep mother nature is turning you into swamp loggers...🤪 Up here in Northern Michigan loggers have some interesting ways and equipment to deal with bottomless swamps.
a low speed application like a skidder there's simply no risk of heating up properly inflated tires, especially in those cold wet conditions you're working in. I never have figured out why so many armchair experts have to run their mouths and tell the world everything they don't know!
Hello!Thanks for your Vídeos.

Awesome video. Was really cool to see the duals up close. That’s not something you see every day. Glad it’s drying out for y’all

I cut timber for 25 plus years. I’m disabled now at 50 years old. Only work I ever done that I enjoyed. I miss it a lot.
Sure glad you're getting some good weather for a change.

Take care and GOD BLESS.
If you wanna learn the little tricks watch the old timers. Can never go wrong with it. No matter what industry
Thanks for letting us know about the tires makes sense to me. Love the videos my friend..
Great video and explanation on the duels, I was interested in why they were made to be so close together. I look forward to more of your great videos.
It’s amazing to watch that machine working...
great video Tim , nice setup on the duels should work out good with all the rain been falling , be safe and have a blessed day !
I worked for a commercial tire company and I tell ya that type of tire work is a job . New sub I really like your channel . Take care out there
Thank you Eric.
Thankfully I started a new job today , been out of work since b4 turkey day, I'll try n catch ur vids when I can, take care.
Wish I could find 4 of them pines around here that straight.

Great operation I sure do miss that work I could set and watch that work all day. Why yeah I’d like one of them calendars.
Looks like those wheels are well built for churnin', turnin', and burnin'.
Yea we are getting sun too ... going to try fishing tomorrow!!! Great video Tim !!
We was off from 12-19 to 1-7 due to the rain. It was a hard lock right at Christmas.
love the video , very informative , always wondered about dual tires
Wonder having different tire height affects traction. I would think the smaller tire will cake up and be slick.
Happy New year's like all your video's and Milwaukee video's to thank you hope you have a great new year 73.s
Ok if u had duels on front would it turn n ride better would it haul more more tire mayb more wood or handle more each drag ???
Maybe someone asked this already but I didn't see it. I have seen loggers up my way in the mountains run big heavy tire chains for traction. Have you ever tried using chains, or is that just an up north kinda thing?? 🙂
is that a good starter drone I been wanting to get one to start putting videos of my job as a front discharge concrete truck driver
100% believer in duals.
nice video learn something every day from you thanks keep logging
Would it help to put water in the tires like they do on a farm tractor?

Another great video from CT3 keep up the good work,think Tim must have done a sun dance for the sun if that's the case keep it up lol
I see where everyone is hollering run tracks , im guessing y'all's red clay is like ours here in Va and will eat up a set of tracks in short fashion .
That’s right.
How long would it take for someone to learn and run the processor effectively?
Thx. Have a good DAY!
Great content as usual. Thanks for sharing.
I would like to have one of those conder
I was wondering what does the smaller pine tree's get used for when it 's too small for telephone poles
Chipped into pulp.
Great video Tim thanks for sharing have a great day
Is that ol Phillip in the 630?
Good morning Tim!
Great video tim enjoyed watching
The dual system doesn't give you more pulling power like a tractor?
That is correct.
Good stuff enjoyed that!!!
Ok Teacher/Tow service/Tim..I get it, you couldn't fit a gnat fart in between those dual's, now that's tight..LOL
I coulda said, like me back in the high school day's but I'm not one to put my personal info. out there, so I didn't..
Tim have a great day, and Take care out there..
@@jameswilson322 It's one of those kinda day's James..LOL
@@cynthiaherr9029 every day is one of those kinda days for you hahaha
@@ronaaserude8225 So true..LMAO
Very good job explaining things. Are the inside rims threaded for the rim bolts or does someone have to hold nuts when you put them on?
It takes nuts
What is the fuel consumption with the duals on versus running just singles ?
Why so much air pressure
Yes i would love to see it
Would the height difference cause some of the traction issues? Difference in distribution? Just thinking out loud
Hello mr. Cotontop3.Great video. Why does your tires and most american tires even agricultural , have different angle on the ribs than european tires ? They dont seem to run clean as good in muddy conditions?
Lots of this clay I crazy sticky and it won’t clean out no matter what you have.
Huge fan cottontop! New to your videos but love them. Love the skidder videos man. Can u do a review video on the skidders you have? Keep up the goodwork! !
Can u do another ride along with kiven.
Who was operating the 630?
How much more fuel are you going through with the duels then without the duels
It has surprised me, but not anymore than we were burning before the duals.
Hi do you run beat juice in your tires or run them dry have a great day
Pretty sure they are dry
Ur crew is like a well oiled machine
Can u do an equipment tour of all the logging equipment
I need to do that, it would make a very cool video.
@@cotontop3 hell yeah!
How much do you charge to sharpen 4 chains
That is same thing bobby Goodson runs right
After a few days of running do you think the duals are helping or just using more fuel Chad can make that thing talk to you
Good info on the duals, some good information. Was he pulling on brush or did the ground dry up that much after lunch cause those treads started looking clean?
Also could you do a class on the processor? Cause when he picks up a tree it looks like it sucks it up.
Awesome video, thanks Tim
This was filmed 4 days after putting tires on. It’s dried a good bit.
Did you do the Sun dance nice to see the Sun for a change
Good Video...educational....Tigercat makes good equipment
Do u have to change the gearing with duals on vs single tires
Not in this situation we didn’t have to do anything other than put them on.
Nice that save a lot of time
You said the used tires were bigger than the new tires. just put the 2 new tires on the same side would slove the problem of different hight.
I just watched it again and that is not what I said. You can’t do it how ur talking about because the tires are not the same width. Inside is 30.5 wide and outside is 24.5 wide.
Sawmiller Smith they a different withs also. Outside tires are new and never used but thin size. Inside tires a original and wider .
Okay guys, I get it now.
Just thought of this but that would also ruin your diff-lock pretty darn quick
my husband and i love watching your videos, he said he would like to have your old drone lol
😍😍😍😍😍 THANKS TIM !!!
Another good one buddy!
Yep mother nature is turning you into swamp loggers...🤪
Up here in Northern Michigan loggers have some interesting ways and equipment to deal with bottomless swamps.
Great video!
Strong bolts,nitrous,& redbull for it..lol
What is the average life of a skidder tire?
That varies.
How much fuel per hour does the 635 use with the duals and how does it compare to without the duals?
I think you need to pull Phil out of school so he can learn the mud. If Chad gets mad and leaves you will need three to take his place.
Not a good skidder operator. Not swinging out far enough to keep the wood from getting tangled up for the processor
